The 2 planes stationed on Midway do not participate in the defense of the fleet. They only participate if there is a force attacking the island itself, not the...
YES, it is correct: the 2 planes on the island do NOT participate in the fleet battle. It's the same like in Pearl Harbor II: if Japan attacks SZ52 on R1, the...
Hey guys. I'm just curious if the last couple of articles have been useful for you. Have any of you have tried: 1. Buying German transports round 1 instead of...
I tried the German transports twice, and overall thought it was very very interesting and stirred up the game, but wasn't effective for me. Anecdote: I buy 3...
I'm just curious if you guys incorporate research ever into your strategies. I have on occasion considered rolling some dice for Germany to get rockets which...
Can we get a hint? It seems obvious that the best move would be to attack the capital itself with full force from the UK. Although the UK would probably lose,...
Is the same path still recommended if the UK fighter on the Indian carrier sinks the solomon islands sub (with the australian sub's help) and then lands on the...
I saw this strategy posted somewhere and I was wondering if it's ok to do it. The reasoning behind it is that it forces the UK/US to build up extra navy to...
It seems ... The fighters must be based in France unless you want to invest in long-range aircraft. Hence they are mostly useless on offense as they can't...
UK lands three loaded transports in EEu and one in Karelia (combined with the 2arm from Norway. UK buys 3inf 4arm US lands UK to EEu (with ftrs) and ECan to...
okay... hmmmm... okay... I got it... let's procastinate a little longer... a bit more... wait... wait... maybe we should... no... let's try it in 7 turns... ...
Yeah that's what I thought too. The way the problem is presented only really leads to one conclusion. You're not shown what troops Germany has in southern...
...but get caught up in the math and realize that it's not a great idea to build bombers: Research rockets. This is with Germany and the US in mind, really. ...
I believe that this exercise is more than deciding that attacking a stack of Dpunch: 32 Count: 14 with a $48 profit in collected income is better than...
Policy Paper #13 is up. It's about a KAF (Kill America First) strategy called the Canadian Shield* wherein the Axis blow through Canadia like… well… like...
(resent as a Special Notice) Policy Paper #13 is up. It's about a KAF (Kill America First) strategy called the Canadian Shield* wherein the Axis blow through...
... A) Holy cow, Don! You replied almost before I submitted the paper! Where did you learn to type that fast? B) As the paper states numerous times, the...
obviously it's not a 100% strategy to use against all players... but sometimes it could achieve surprise even against superior players who never think you...
... Last Saturday, I played a game in which the Axis player (not me) on G1 did the 3 German transports and 5 infantry build (saving 1 IPC). The Allies'...
... After three rolls (3 dice for one turn), there is just under a 3/5 chance of *not* having achieved the rocket weapons technology. After six rolls (3 each...
... And Germany not being able to build any units on its following turn. ... Agreed. The most likely result of the UK/US one-two punch is the US captures the...
... After just over one million simulated runs, the total success rate of this attack is 92.7%. And an attack of battleship, fighter and loaded transport...
WOW Don, Excellent Analysis!!! Attacking E.Eur before and in the next round making a big D-Day from land and sea was my first thought too. Especially after...
Nice story Don. Was there any bid? In my first few games we had mostly a lot of that dynamic which you talked about where Germany fell just as Russia did. I've...
It says that the net gain of bombing against a territory of value 6+ with an AA gun is 1 IPC. It is less than that. In the 1/6 times that the AA gun hits, the...
... No bid. ... Yes - German controlled. Which essentially meant Germany was collecting 4 extra IPCs and Russia 4 fewer IPCs each turn. With the UK/US...
